More than 30 UK counties ‘set for snow’— Check if your area is on the list

Some areas of the UK could see snow as Winter 2026 draws on.

The Mirror reports that the ECMWF model has indicated that snow could arrive in parts of the UK later this month.

The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) is a widely respected forecasting model, used to predict weather patterns up to 14 days in advance.

According to the forecasts, Scotland is expected to see the first flurries before wintry weather potentially moves further south into England and Wales.

Maps showing conditions at 6am on November 17 suggest snowfall could reach as far south as Devon.

However, it is unlikely that much of the snow will settle, with higher ground in Scotland expected to see the greatest chance of accumulation. The wintry showers are also forecast to ease by around midday.

As with all longer-range forecasts, the outlook could change as the date approaches.
